Title: Process for microbiological soil decontamination.
Inventor: BACHHAUSEN PETER
IPC: B09C1/10
Filed: 1990-01-04
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP90/00016 Sec. 371 Date Jul. 11, 1991 Sec. 102(e) Date Jul. 11, 1991 PCT Filed Jan. 4, 1990 PCT Pub. No. WO90/07992 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 26, 1990.The present invention relates to a method for the microbiological decontamination of soil, in which 1) the contaminated soil is excavated and treated, 2) the treated soil is banked up on a prepared subsoil in the form of regeneration clamps, and 3) the clamps are provided with oxygen while microbiological degradation of the contaminants takes place. The method comprises mixing the contaminated soil with, preferably contaminated, concrete and/or building rubble, before the mixture is banked up in the form of regeneration clamps, the concrete and/or building rubble having been comminuted before mixing to a particle size of </=10 mm, preferably </=6 mm. The method according to the invention makes possible, within a short time, decontamination even of soils whose permeability for air and water is only low, and also of soils where the distribution of contaminants is highly inhomogeneous, or where the concentration of contaminants is very high. Particularly good results are achieved when the clamps are additionally sprinkled with treated water from the operator's own treatment plant.

Abstract: Process for controlling the operation of refining pig iron in a steelworks converter involving the injection from above of at least two supersonic jets of primary oxygen at a certain total flow rate against the surface of the bath to be refined. This process is characterised in that the desired ratio of the rate of decarbonisation of the metal to the rate of oxidation of the slag is obtained by the fact that each of the jets issuing from a nonrotary lance touches the surface of the bath in the same annular region with a given impact energy. This energy varies, according to the physicochemical state of the bath, between upper and lower limiting values. At the same time the height of the lance above the surface of the bath and the total flow rate of the main refining oxygen flow are held at substantially nonvarying levels. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to the field of metrology and to a liquid level detector for corrosive liquids which have a tendency to form a skin or to foul. The object of the invention is to design a liquid level detector which has, in a submerged cylinder (2) projecting into the liquid (10), a level measuring device (3; 4; 5) which can be coupled to a float, in such a way that the operation of the level measuring device (3; 4; 5) is not impaired by the liquid (10). According to the invention, the level measuring device (3; 4; 5) is separated from the liquid (10) as a result of the float automatically fitting into the submerged cylinder so as to form a seal and be capable of sliding or as a result of the submerged cylinder (2) being sealed in a liquid-tight manner with a flexible sheet (7), which may be joined to the float. Above the sheet (7) there may also be another, noncorrosive, second liquid (11) which does not have a tendency to skin formation or to fouling and which serves as control medium for the level measuring device (3; 4; 5). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A profiled castellated metal sheet has secondary features 4 surmounting its flat-topped areas 3 which run parallel to the castellations and which are upstanding from the flat-topped areas 3 in use and have a maximum open width of 25 mm. These secondary features 4 are used to support a mesh when the sheet is used as a decking for a composite steel/concrete floor, and avoid the need to support the mesh on separately provided mesh support stools. The use of such a castellated sheet therefore decreases both the time and cost involved in construction of such composite floors, and also increases the structural integrity of the floors so formed.
